SoCon Men's Soccer Results, Nov. 7, 2003

Appalachian State 5, Gardner-Webb 3

In the first match of the Wingate Inn/Sagebrush Classic, Appalachian downed Gardner-Webb by a score of 5-3.

Keon McPherson scored two goals and assisted on another while Fredrick Henriksen, David Boyd, and Geoff Christman each added goals for the Mountaineers.

Winthrop will host Appalachian State in its final regular season game at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday.

Lipscomb 3, Wofford 2

Despite two goals by junior Jesus Arroyo-Peco, the Wofford men's soccer team fell 3-2 to Lipscomb Friday night at Snyder Field in the final
regular-season match for both schools.

After Roland Borys connected on a Ben Page assist for the game's first goal at 27:38, Arroyo-Peco brought the Terriers even at 33:04. After
Jeremy Oswald passed across the field to Michael Gonzales, Gonzales served a long pass to Arroyo-Peco who beat one Bison defender before firing a shot past Robert Mott to knot the score at 1-1.

The Bison put another tally up on the scoreboard just before the half, as Page found Andy Irvine's head off a corner kick at 43:15.

After a Wofford defender was called for a foul inside the 18-yard box, Jeffrey Maddux scored the ensuing penalty kick to give Lipscomb a 3-1
advantage at the 55:47 mark. Arroyo-Peco responded with a penalty kick of his own at 67:51 after a Terrier was pulled down inside the penalty
area.

Both teams shared chances the final 20 minutes of the contest but were denied by either the goalkeepers or defensive players of the opposing
squad.

"We were certainly disappointed that we couldn't win in the last home game for the seniors," said head coach Matt Kern. "But I thought the
six seniors and everyone else that did play displayed some good effort and played with passion. It was good to see them have one last run on Snyder Field. It was a game that was back-and-forth as both teams had some chances, but unfortunately we only scored two and they scored
three."

Prior to the contest, the Wofford athletic department and men's soccer program recognized the accomplishments from the last four years of this year's senior class. Co-captain Gray Camp, Gabe Garcia, Gonzales, Sam Moore, Oswald, Robert Tibbetts and Sean Whelan were members of the class
of 2004 which was playing its final game at Snyder Field.

With the loss, the Terriers drop to 3-15, while Lipscomb improves to 5-14. Wofford will next play in the first round of the Southern
Conference Tournament Thursday afternoon. As the No. 8 seed entering the field, the Terriers will match up against No. 1 seed Davidson at
4:30 p.m. in Charleston, S.C.

"We have some issues that need to be worked out before we head to Charleston, but we'll need to play extremely well to beat Davidson.
But, it can be done. We're going to work in practice this week and try and beat them Thursday."
